What Can A Santa Ana Bicycle Accident Lawyer Do?
It is vitally important that a bicycle accident victim get help from an attorney because the at-fault driver and their insurance company will not willingly hand over a fair settlement. Your attorney’s job is to prove the other person’s fault by obtaining all of the evidence in the case, including:
- Police reports
- Eyewitness statements
- Photos and video from the scene
Your bike accident attorney in Santa Ana will ensure you are evaluated by a trusted medical professional who can assess the extent of your injuries. With this information, your attorney will calculate your total losses and work to negotiate a fair settlement on your behalf.
